- Do you have many friends in Nizhny Novgorod?

- First of all, Dmitry V. Svatkovsky. He is my friend and colleague at the shop. Not unimportant factor, of course, was a proposal from Valery Shantsev Pavlinovich. I often come here for the last five years just 20-30. Not bad oriented in Nizhny Novgorod, come here and relax and the cases have been in many places in the area. The bottom is not far from Moscow, a cozy town, nice area, nice people. I'm glad I got here, Nizhny Novgorod region is chosen consciously. Initially, I did not want to go into politics for a long time thinking before deciding. In the final regulation, I understand that I live in Russia and I love my country and I want people here lived well. The contribution that I make, I will add it. To say that I am going to the State Duma for the sake of status or salary is just silly. I would like to move the country forward, and made it even faster.

- How do you feel about the fact that athletes go into politics? Whether they are competent in this area?

- I take this well. There is such a stereotype that actors, models, athletes - it's not serious. We have a lot of politicians, many say, but nobody does anything. There are a lot of smart athletes, but they can not get to the top, so to be taken seriously, or just get into bad company. Svatkovsky, Fetisov, San Sanych Karelin - many athletes involved in politics and they pretty well.

- Which areas of activity are you interested in politics?

- I am very interested in international relations and economics. Oh, and of course sport.

- If you become a deputy, to you a lot of athletes to seek help. What means should be the development of sport?

- We have a lot of money. Sport gets enough from the state. However, I do not want no one to fight for the money, do tug of war. The work must be carried out following the example of the Nizhny Novgorod region - contributed money and once built.

- How do you assess the development of sport in the regions, is it easy to get through to young boys from the provinces?

- Unfortunately, the sport is now difficult to break. Take the example of Finland, there was the problem of dirty streets. They said students - now you will clean the streets. Every day! And that eventually happened? The generation that came out of these schools ceased to litter. They were vaccinated more thinking. The same applies to us. When adults go in for sports, children will look at them. There will be no drug or alcohol abuse. People will be able to find employment, and not just be blunt thump in the park, Shiryaev, sniff glue. I saw it all with my own eyes have witnessed how many people died. I say this not because it is a beautiful word, but because I know it. Know how it ends, and ends with a very badly. Adults who say that sports do not need no time. Brad full! I've seen in America as people involved in sports at 11, at 12 o'clock at night. Because they respect themselves, their strength, others. People need to make, that they would have an interest. All for it. How many have been built in your area. It remains only to come to change and do it. What stops them? It is a culture. A person needs to understand something, first start doing them. He must do this not only for himself but also to set an example to young people. What would they not give in to bad habits.

- How are your colleagues, loved ones, to ensure that you have been involved in politics?

- Close only. Why not. No need to think stereotypes. I saw a lot of scientists of genius who can not connect two words. Athletes can be much more successful in politics. They praise his then Russia, to give a penny, and eventually formed an opinion about them as people not far away. I'll break down these stereotypes.

- What are your first actions as a deputy?

- We must understand that I am a new person. Any new person should meet with the team, in which it will work. The mechanism of the clear, play an important role interpersonal relationships. If the member does not communicate with the governor, he can not take constructive decisions. We need to work in Moscow, with the lobby for the interests of the region. All this is built on relationships, not just paperwork. Must itself go, talk, promote your program, show enthusiasm. We have educated people, the head of the region, who understands everything and doing the right thing. There are helpers, people with whom you can work.

- Do you still remain non-partisan. There were there any proposals from political parties?

- Proposals from parties not yet been received. But now, here are planning to join the party. We have only one party that can influence the development of the country - it's "United Russia". The other parties can not.

- What are the lessons sport brings to politics?

- You always have to be confident in what you are doing. I do not break when that begins to do something. Sport gives confidence that the foundations.

- You have lived a long time abroad. There are things that you would like to move on Russian soil?

- Love one another, respect. Respect for the other person comes from respect. Our people are always something is not satisfied, in Europe there is no such a thing. They can not afford this, just because they live in one country. In Russia it is possible to live in one house and each other not even say hello. This should be changed.

Marat has the best fan forum EVER. If he can inspire such loyalty in us, just think what he can do with the Russian people. Does anyone know what day in December the election will be held?

The State Duma elections are on the 4th of December.
I really hope he can do good things for the Russian people, he can actually be very serious and he has already done lots for former athletes who need help and is helping some young tennis players.
